Rush Limbaugh really IS a big fat idiot

I don't care who you are, where you fall on the political spectrum, or how you feel about the Democratic Party: nobody could condone the sickening remarks that talk show host Rush Limbuagh made the other day comparing Democrats to the Nazi Party, as part of the heated health care reform debate. That is so incendiary, so beyond the realm of reasonable discourse, so insulting (not to mention, so wrong), this overpaid clown may have finally gone too far, even in the eyes of conservatives.

Jews are sensitive to the use and overuse of "Nazi" as an epithet, especially when the anti-Israel crowd compares Israelis and the IDF to Nazis. It is NOT an insult to be hurled lightly, but here we have the most prominent voice in the Republican Party throwing the ultimate rhetorical bomb. It's a stink bomb, and Limbaugh had better get a grip if he doesn't want to see violence in the streets, committed by his more slavish (and heavily-armed) acolytes.

Or maybe he does want to see it?

Rush Limbaugh is a disgrace to humanity. I wish he'd pack up his Oxycontin, his condoms, head for the Bahamas and never come back.
